In 2023, sales of electric vehicles (EVs) passed the 1.6 million mark.
To visualize where EVs are the most popular, Visual Capitalist’s Bruno Venditti maps the number of registered EVs per 100,000 people by state as of June 2024.
The vehicle registration data is sourced from the U.S. Department of Energy, while population data is from the U.S. Census Bureau.
Only all-electric vehicles are included on the map.
